Uli Hesse-Lichtenberger in Germany

Looks like this is shaping up to be a wonderful season for traditionalists, or at least for history-laden football cities. We have already had a closer look at Schalke, en route to winning their first championship since 1958, and Karlsruhe, about to return to the top flight after nine years. And on Tuesday night, Nuremberg reached the German FA Cup final for the first time in a quarter of a century - 71 years, 4 months and 9 days after this club had become the first-ever team to lift the trophy.
